The Holder - Issa Smackdown

Tyler Durden's picture




 

This was not your grandfather's hearing. The air was thick with partisanship already but when Darrell Issa began by playing audio of Thomas Perez, assistant attorney general for civil rights and President Barack Obama's nominee to become the next Secretary of Labor, in which he confirms that he is arranging for details relating to the St. Paul case not to be disclosed. "Do you think it's appropriate for someone to -- at a federal level -- to try to keep information out in order to disguise what's actually going on?" Issa asked. "There are a whole variety of reasons why people, why we as a government and Justice Department, decide not to become involved in qui tam cases," Holder replied. Holder and Issa went back and forth until Holder lost it... "It is inappropriate and too consistent with the way in which you conduct yourself as a member of Congress," Holder said. "It is unacceptable. It is shameful."

Fire him? Obama needs him. Holder will be the last one to turn out the lights on noon of Jan 20, 2017, after running the paper shredders and the disk-erasers red hot for weeks beforehand.

This is the same black racist who blocked anyone from prosecuting Black Panthers who stood outside polling places to intimidate voters.

Dirty fucking criminal. Holder needs to cool his ass in a cell for about twenty years. And he's only the first of about 2999 more who have to go.

A black man is NOT going to be talked down to like that! Nowadays many blacks feel that they are not subordinate to anyone, even in employment. They are co-equal, with a affirmative action handicap factor thrown in to boot. Ever try to fire one? Of course a lot of our protected minorities do work for the government, so are pretty much exempt from firing anyway.

Susan Rice Poised for Promotion, Despite Benghazi...

 

Insiders with ties to the Obama administration tell The Cable that U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice has become the heir apparent to National Security Advisor Tom Donilon -- a post at the epicenter of foreign-policy decision making and arguably more influential than secretary of state, a job for which she withdrew her candidacy last fall amid severe political pressure.

It's not that easy.   Holder has been doing "This" since Waco, and OK.   He's a 30 year veteran of the system.   He CAME up thru the system.

The problem of "Holding him Accountable" is  that he will be replaced with Someone ELSE FROM THE SYSTEM with 10/20/30 years of experience in the same things Holder is. 

There "is no"  fresh stock to draw upon if you wanted to replace the  thousands of the middle management of politics( the pool of eligible appointees) .

Watch "The Distinguished Gentleman"  with Eddy Murphy.  Where do all those appointees come from?  Ivy league schools, with the same crowd,

Your choices are someone else from "The Matrix"

How does the USA manage to have the ability to seek out and promote so much scum at all levels of politics, banking and business?

My answer is that bad behaviour that goes unpunished sets a new benchmark for those that follow.

I genuinely would like to hear people's theories on this because America is being demolished from the inside at an alarming rate.

Here's an opinion from 1920...

". . all the odds are on the man who is, intrinsically, the most devious and mediocre — the man who can most easily (and) adeptly disperse the notion that his mind is a virtual vacuum. The presidency tends, year by year, to go to such men. As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal.

On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

 

-- H.L. Mencken July 26, 1920, wrote in The Baltimore Sun: " .

"Apart from the basic fact that the community of collectivism can extend only as far as the unity of purpose of the individuals exists or can be created, several contributory factors strengthen the tendency of collectivism to become particular list and exclusive. Of these, one of the most important is that the desire of the individual to identify himself with a group is very frequently the result of a feeling of inferiority and that therefore his want will be satisfied only if membership of the group confers some superiority over others...Niebuhr's Moral Man and Immoral Society {argues there is} 'increasing tendency among modern men to imagine themselves ethical because they have delegated their vices to larger and larger groups'"

Theory for you:

Spend an hour watching  your city council meeting on cable-access tv.

Then ask yourself if you'd like to spend your life in those kinds of meetings---getting into two-bit pissing matches with people who need desperately need the attention and approval of others.

Anyone w/half an ounce of initiative would blow their brains out.

What's left are mensa members like sheila jackson lee, or professional lawyers who are experts at regulatory capture---aka fascism.

OK... I won't give you theories... I'll give you a simple fact - we are morally bankrupt.

  • If a man can't keep a promise to his wife (ya, people still do marry today, right?), how is he going to keep a promise to uphold public office. I'm not talking about a man that had made a mistake once in his life, I'm talking about a lifestyle that continues without remorse or sense of duty to one's spouse.
  • The system is dysfunctional. Banks today can act in an illegal fashion, bring in millions and then pay a fine out of their profits, and keep the rest... and perhaps throw a couple of underlings under the bus for PR purposes.
  • Our Western culture holds up individualism (that's right - say it after me - liberalism) as the sole objective of existence.

We have lost our sense of right and wrong because we have removed God from our lives. If you look past the liberal rhetoric of Galileo, the Crusades and Vatican conspiracies, you'll find that adoration of the self is all that matters. Moral relativism is the new religion.

Issa's wiki looks like a smear job. He is very unpopular with the misinformed jewish community and criminal zionist element because of his heritage.
I like him.
That car theft thing is distorted. Issa built a very successful luxury car alarm business from scratch. Apparently he had a misunderstanding or disagreement with a customer. There is a big difference between allegations and charges. You can ask him for his side of the story. He does answer his email.

The system is far too gamed now.

I have ZERO faith anything will be turned around.

I actually look at all of this as free entertainment.

Congress CAN'T do shit because they would never have support from the Dumbocrats.

Congress WON'T do shit because most of THEIR dirty laundry would be outed by other members in the process.

The People WON'T do shit because everyone is too scared to get keel hauled by the media, TPTB and the IRS.

Further, the People WON'T do shit because most either don't know how or or are too fucking lazy to do more than post a rant on a blog or send a tweet.

As for myself, I no longer give a shit because nothing will change.

Short attention spans, an increasingly illiterate electorate and Uncle Sugar ASSURES we are doomed as a Nation.

I am now only concerned about navigating the changing playing field and my exit strategy.

I love my country, but have completely lost faith in anything changing.

The Founding Fathers knew these days would come.  Read the quotes engraved in the granite at the Jefferson Memorial. Criminals running the Justice system is proverbial and must be squelched...Or Else...

So... The question is: Will The People (and the Press) stand up to the challenge - or act as the cowards divine seems to hope for and become slaves to a totalatarian ideology?

"Will The People and The Press Stand Up?"

- If Not Now When.... This is it people... Look at the headlines - if this does not do it - nothing will.

If the Founding Fathers Could Speak... ?

Mr. Thomas Jefferson:

"When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty. "

What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance?

The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong, but better so than not to be exercised at all.

The majority, oppressing an individual, is guilty of a crime, abuses its strength, and by acting on the law of the strongest breaks up the foundations of society.

When wrongs are pressed because it is believed they will be borne, resistance becomes morality. ]

I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.

Most bad government has grown out of too much government.

Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty.

The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.

Here is a smack back at Holder and the Oreo.

http://theulstermanreport.com/2013/05/15/breaking-obama-white-house-just...

Please read the following brief assessment below of just how clear the Obama White House has revealed either its complete complicity in at least one of the many quite serious administrative scandals that are now ongoing, OR, Barack Obama is the most detached and incompetent president to have ever been elected to the office of president, and should resign on such incompetence immediately as he is not mentally fit to be President of the United States…

 

 

Please watch this video beginning at the 1:20 mark where Eric Holder explained yesterday that the motivation to seize Associated Press communications records was based upon “A very-very serious leak.  Among the most serious leaks – it put American people at risk.”

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnbxBsR6zok&feature=player_embedded 

 

Now read the following excerpt from White House Spokesman Jay Carney explaining WHEN Barack Obama learned of the Associated Press-Department of Justice communications scandal:

Q    When did the President find out about the Department of Justice’s subpoenas for the Associated Press?

MR. CARNEY:  Yesterday.  Let me just be clear.  We don’t have any independent knowledge of that.  He found out about the news reports yesterday on the road.    LINK

 

So please now consider this reader – the Attorney General of the United States of America publicly informs the media that there was such a significant threat to American security that it required the Department of Justice to revoke the First Amendment rights of a significant media source.

And yet, despite that significant threat to American security, the White House then indicates Barack Obama HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF THAT THREAT or the attempt to remedy that threat.  That he in fact just learned of his own Department of Justice’s potentially illegal actions against the Associated Press.

NO WAY.

The Obama White House is placing lies atop lies now at such a pace they cannot even coordinate them on a daily basis.

Either Barack Obama did in fact know of his DOJ’s actions against the media, and then had his administration lie about it, or he has an administration that does not even bother to inform him of a significant threat to the United States.

So which is it Obama White House?  And at this point does it even matter?  You have now made it clear to the American people you are a repeated liar, an absolute incompetent – or both.    -UM

This treasonous shit will end when we really want it to end. Until then, it's a spank-a-thon.

Weiner /Holder 2016

 

Tricky Dick got nuttin on us!

 

 

Holder sounds like a wiseguy.  "You want I should suhpeenah him boss?  We don't no warrant.  Just call in the goons and bust em up"

 

It is so weird.  The guy has to be the limp-est dick ever in AG history.  Nothing.  Oh, sure, prosecuted a couple of dips that got entrapped by the FBI.  Heres the (benign) bomb.  Take it in that building.  We got him!

Make sure O-man STAYs in power so he can reap what he's sewn---own it.

It will be educational for future generations...just as Nixon resonates to this day.

We of the Illuminati have enough of your mocking Obama and his man servants.  Time to unshackle Cthulhu and direct the creature to scourge Zero Hedge.

Holder's behavior has a name. It is called projection. Accuse your target of what you are guilty of. Too bad he did not have more time to project a complete list of his faults.

Holder thinks sucking a nine inch cock for half an hour before going to work is appropriate behavior, so there's that. He also takes it up the ass, first, so that kind of behavior, to him, is acceptable. Of course, the man wouldn't know shame if it slapped him on the forehead.

Holder's "shameful" pose smacks of Welch's diatribe against McCarthy - "My God man, have you no decency?!" 

When someone's got you by the short hairs at a public hearing, try to shut them up with irrelevant personal attacks. 

For all his many failings, McCarthy was right.  That's why we have communists and their sympathizers and useful idiots in the White House.

True, and well said.

 

Just for the record: this is not a matter of "right" and "left" it's a matter of right and wrong.
